Molly breeding

I have a male orange and black molly(not sure what kind he is...pics coming soon) and two female gold dust lyretail mollies I just got 2 weeks ago. I know the females were pregnant when I got them. The one just had fry only one little guy made it. I do have baby grass and lots of rocks and plants sooooo I am letting nature take its course. I only have a 30 gallon and I have read that they breed like rabbits.
Question: Since the male is not a lyretail will they still breed?

I'm excited to see the next round of fry then! My male is a pretty orange and black with alot of green. With the gold dust lyretails for moms they should be beautiful :)
